The state of being gratuitous. "Gratuitous" (from the French word "gratuit" meaning free, without cost) means something which is thrown in without being required. These days it has a bed connotation, as it usually refers to a film, drama or book which includes scenes of sex or violence, just to tittilate the low-brows, when they are not really required by the plot.
